receive at least one signal from the position detector indicating a position of a viewer relative to the display screen in the first axis and a perpendicular distance of the viewer from the display screen; and
send at least one electronic signal to the display screen, wherein the at least one electronic signal causes the display screen to display a user interface, wherein the user interface comprises an age scale aligned with the first axis, an asset scale aligned with the second axis and a chart of assets versus age; and
upon determining that the perpendicular distance of the viewer from the display screen is less than a predetermined value, modify the interface to display an element at a first position on the age scale corresponding to a position of the viewer relative to the display screen in the first axis, wherein the element comprises information describing at least one of an investment-related event occurring at the first position on the age scale and an investment-related service related to the first position on the age scale; and
